29 weeks....cannot believe it!!

Today I am 29 weeks pregnant. I am in the home stretch. Can't beleive that I only have about 10 weeks left (Doctor doing C-section about 10-14 days before due date so somewhere around 38 weeks!!) Let's see, what is happening?????

As soon as 27 weeks approached, I could feel the 3rd trimester begin! Feels just like the 1st trimester. I am tired alot, not much appetite, and alot of food aversions. Hanging in there, though :) I took my 28 week Glucose test to test for gestational diabetes and I PASSED! Also at my 28 week appt., they did an ultrasound and the amniotic fluid level is back within normal limits. AND so far, I have only gained 19 pounds. Let's hope that I stay far away from the pound weight gain I had with Morgan.

My baby shower was so nice. Joc threw me my baby shower on May 10. Lot so family dame in from NJ and PA and lots of friends from here, too. There were 30+ people there. It was so nice. I especially enjoyed that Morgan was part of the shower. She helped me open the baby presents and read the cards. I am so excited for her to be a big sister :) THANKS, JOC, FOR A GREAT SHOWER!

The baby's bedding set came last week. It is so pretty! We thought it was just brown and pink but there is a hint of pale yellow in there so we decided to paint the baby's room pale yellow. We went this past weekend and bought FreshAire paint from HomeDepot. It is VOC free and odor free so it is safe for pregnant women to paint with. I can't wait to start painting. We started to clear out the guest room.....giving Morgan the queen bed in her room and getting rid of lots of junk in the guest room so we can turn it into the baby's room. I should be starting the painting this week....

Well, until next time. Char
